Welcome to our page: a lorry, a dog and loads of adventures around the South Coast and further 🐾😘🐾

23/07/2024

While we are waiting for our home to come back we enjoyed our time down the beach and with some nice walks
Good to see the big beast back in town
It’s lovely down the beach atm and the sound of the waves 🌊😍
😍☀️🌊🙌🏻

21/07/2024

We had an absolute awesome weekend - how I have survived no idea 🤷🏼‍♀️
Sandy & Shandy loved it too!
Some amazing steam engines and loads of miniatures too.
Now we are back in our favourite spot and it’s gonna be an early night for us that’s for sure 😆

21/07/2024

Day 3 of Netley Marsh Steamfair and it’s fair to say: I’m broken! What a fantastic weekend and despite the weather yesterday we had an awesome time! Sandy loved it too. We had plenty of rides on the steam engine and my new best pal Arthur kept me busy - what a flirt he is - just like his grandad 😂
😍☀️😍

16/07/2024

MOT day and it didn’t go ahead as planed 😫😭😔
But then your bestie comes to the rescue and we decide to take our dogs for a walk - literally 😂
Lorry dropped off for repairs thanks to and Prosecco it is!!!
Sandy got so bored of it now she’s falling asleep 💤….
What a day has that been 😆🙆‍♀️🙆‍♀️🙆‍♀️

14/07/2024

I’m back home - well, kinda: my second home looking after Arlo, having a much needed bath - steam rallies are dirty and dinner, now watching Johnny Cash as I will not watch that round thing!
Rona steam rally was a blast, next stop: Netley Marsh!
Sandy & I having a sleepover 😂 tonight as she’s exhausted and I got lost somewhere in Wiltshire 🙄🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️ glad i was in my van and not my lorry as the roads were getting smaller and smaller…😆 but I wasn’t bothered - the sun was shining & I had my own live concert: music loud and me singing along 🤷🏼‍♀️😍🤷🏼‍♀️
😍☀️😍

14/07/2024

This is our first steam rally and it’s been great love all the little steam engines and fantastic to see soo many.
I look like a Panda 🐼 sunglass face 😂
Loads to see today: classic cars too and rides
The sun is shining and all this on a donation basis only!
This definitely is a little gem and it’s up to us to keep those going 🙌🏻🙏👍

14/07/2024

Sunday morning and the sun ☀️ shining
Sandy is ready to welcome people
Rona Steam Rally has been great
Dr Busker in the beer tent last night - throwbacks there 😂
But first breakfast for us 😊

13/07/2024

When your dog is sooooo tired but doesn’t wanna go to bed - she keeps falling asleep sitting up 😂
Late night last night after bumping into some Fuelled by Cider friends… and also look whose here: AAAAAAADRIAAAAN not not really but Richard.
Not much to do today as the day started with a bit of a sore head so it was pineapple juice all day and while th sun ☀️ came out for 5min I grabbed a cider and just enjoyed the view 😂 while Sandy is sleeping 💤
I’m sure more cider to be drunken later…
😍❤️‍🔥😍☀️

12/07/2024

While others were setting up - Sandy had a snooze in the sunshine ☀️
She then got too hot and moved but into the sunshine ☀️🤦🏼‍♀️🙆‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️
We are just chilling now and as it gets busier we are watching the steam engines 😍

11/07/2024

Only a couple of days back in Bournemouth and what a nightmare 🙄
My lorry got new “shoes” 2 so far - need 3 and £775 lighter!!!
Then booked her for her first MOT with me but that didn’t go to plan either as everyone knows everything and nothing but can’t help in the end! 🙆‍♀️😫🙆‍♀️
No MOT but she booked in for Tuesday morning so we try again!
Then Sandy & I packed the van and left for the countryside - somewhere in Wiltshire: Rona Steam Rally
Who knows what the weekend brings and at this point I don’t care anymore - sun ☀️ is shining
Sandy is happy and I’m chilling with a cider in a field and it’s very quiet here as nothing happening until Saturday 😆
Talking about being on time 🤣
What more do I need?
🐾☀️🐾

09/07/2024

That’s it another week done and Henley you were a blast - although the weather wasn’t good we still enjoyed our time! Even Sandy got to see a bit😫😫😫🙄🙄🙄
Back in Bournemouth for a couple of nights and off again Rona Steamfair 😉
🐾☔️🐾😘😍

03/07/2024

Sundays be like: a new window is needed 💪🏻 and if you live in a van/lorry you appreciate a nice bath and especially if it’s that pretty - thank you 😊 just missing the butler to rub my back 😂 guess that’s what Sandy wanted to do…
Then on Monday we went back up to for the
Set up two coffee trailers and I’m doing the gin bar
Riley will be at the start line looking after all the rowers
It’s such a beautiful place here 😍
😍☕️🐾💕🐾

30/06/2024

We went to wash our home yesterday, well mainly the engine! I should have taken pics before and after as i didn’t know the engine is actually red 🤦🏼‍♀️😆🤣! It was black like thick black grease in it! Then washed the cab and Sandy wasn’t impressed!!!
Back to work in the evening at a beautiful wedding and I’ve bumped into some mates & some good cider 😉 back just before midnight and today we are getting ready for Henley Royal Regatta 🙌🏻💪🏻

We had breakfast and now just chilling
Can it get any better?!??
Probably not 🙌🏻🐾💕🙌🏻🐾🙌🏻

25/06/2024

So tonight’s adventures…
Sandy found a fish head and was well excited about it! She ate it! There goes the little cute white dog - she’s ruff as!!! Proper street dog age is!
Sunset was beautiful and I’ve met some very nice people.
Arlo decided it’s safer on his couch then Mudeford Quay 🙆‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🙆‍♀️ as he doesn’t like to get dirty!
Sandy is rather pleased with herself and fast asleep now…

25/06/2024

We finished the day yesterday as we started it with some beautiful ☀️

Another fantastic weekend at Henley
What an amazing event it was and everyone was soooo nice
No Sandy but still had a good time.
From one stunning location to another
Life is good - I’ve my wobbles as we cross path with people who just suck our all your energy but then I remember that I can walk away and surround myself with beautiful people and positivity 🙌🏻
Back at Avon Beach for a morning swim and a new day 😍🥰😍

The sunset was beautiful last night and we moved to our favourite spot and woke up with such a gorgeous view!
Sandy is about to take off enjoying the wind by the beach
Just love it here 😍
🐾😍🐾

19/06/2024

Waking up to the sounds of the waves, going for a stroll in your pjs and kettle is on with such a beautiful view - the energy of the sea is what keeps me going!
It’s peaceful here and I can get ready for a busy day ahead!
His lordship Arlo love the promenade as he doesn’t like sand, water or the sun 🙆‍♀️😆🤦🏼‍♀️
Sandy is happy to sit in the sunshine and looking at the world passing by - life is good 😊
😘🐾🐾😘

17/06/2024

That’s what I needed: the sea 🌊
After over 5hrs driving back from with a quick diesel stop in Abingdon as it’s cheaper. I needed some vitamin Sea.
I’ve missed coming down here, such a beautiful place to watch the sunset and with my bestie.
We are now parked up and listening to the waves 🌊
It cannot get any better than this
😍🐾😍🌊🌊🐾😍

What a day 😫🤦🏼‍♀️😫
It all started so peaceful and beautiful but who knew…

Let’s have a look inside 👀
Sandy & I are at VanLife Festival exhibiting (showing off) my lorry and I must say I absolutely love 💕 her!
I’m still not finished but she’s beautiful and Sandy & I are very very comfortable in her.
I’ve never though I would be so content! This is my happy place
Hope you enjoy her too

29/04/2024

Busy weekend with loads of walkies down the beach and sandy is absolutely shattered!
We went for a nice walk this morning and then picked up her bestie Arlo! Looks like he’s already tired 😂 he’s staying with us for a couple of days
The lorry is rocking in the wind - I feel like I’m on a boat

This weather is most depressing and if I don’t see any sunshine ☀️ soon I’ve to rely on some very drastic measures to cheer me up 😂 At least Sandy loves it 🐾💕🐾 #homeiswhereyouparkit #vanlife #mylife #mypooch #vanlifediaries #beachlife #mydog #weatherisrubbish #july #nosummertime #nosummer

I’m not missing out anymore 🙌🏻 I might not have a partner to share these precious moments with but I’m also not missing out! It’s not for everyone to get up at silly o’clock and just sit by the beach and listen to the ocean 🌊 I love the beach first thing in the morning and after a quick walk with my Sandy I went swimming and it’s absolutely amazing 🤩 It’s been a tough year for many of us and I have my wobbles too but these are the moments that make me appreciate my life choices 🙌🏻#homeiswhereyouparkit #vanlife #mylife #mypooch #summervibes #vanlifediaries #beachlife #mynewchapter #oceanlover ☀️🌊☀️

This is what I needed 🙌🏻☀️🙌🏻 #peaceofmind #peacful #peacewithin
